Free birthday food is a fabulous way to celebrate your birthday. But what’s better, there are a TON of companies ready and willing to help.
How To Celebrate Your Birthday
Your birthday is a day to celebrate you, but not everyone can afford a lavish party or gift. Between paying bills and rising costs of living, sometimes people have to choose between celebrating their birthday or staying afloat.
Fortunately, you CAN have your cake and eat it, too. There are many companies that are willing to celebrate your big day by offering a ton of free food.
If you want to get your hands on some free birthday stuff, many companies offer discounts on select menu items. Others give customers free birthday food as part of a BOGO deal or with the purchase of a drink or other small item.
But what we’re really interested in are those sweet, sweet freebies that require no strings attached — no BOGOs, no discounts, no purchase required. And believe it or not, there are plenty of businesses out there who are more than happy to comply with this request. Even better, all you have to do is wait until your birthday rolls around to watch the gifts pile up!
